Daniel Burrows the maintainer of aptitude is a member of this list.
Perhaps he might find some time to respond.  I did look into the same
question a while back.  I believe what it comes down to is the lower the
score of the solution the better.  Although I could be wrong about that.
I took just a minute to see if I could remember where exactly I read about
it.  I'm fairly sure it was the aptitude user's manual written by Daniel.

Hope this helps.  And if you do find the answer, please come back and let
us all know.
